Effervescing Elephant is a song by Syd Barrett which appears on his second solo record, Barrett. The track starts off with just about twenty seconds of just faint background noise with not much going on. The thing I want to stress about Effervescing Elephant is that it’s a very …

I didn’t realize that I had Barbra Streisand: I’ve Dreamed of You CD in my collection. I assume it’s a version of a CD single because there are only two songs on it. I’m not sure I realized they made two-song CDs.

“Black Sails In The Sunset” is one of the premier punk albums of the 90s. Put simply, it is a solid record with no filler, and provides an hour of some of the best and fullest punk of the 1990s. It is certainly AFI’s best record in my opinion. …

When this album was released many people were disappointed with it. To be honest, I was a little shocked when I first heard this record as well. The thing is, this album sounds almost nothing like the debut album by this band. Their previous album, released in 2005, sounded …

This album is impressive on several layers. Songs on this album are quite different from one another, and I would not say that I like all of them, all the types of songs that are there. But it is clear that none of the songs on the album are …
